Abstract

U radu se analizira utjecaj rata u Ukrajini na politiku proširenja Europske unije te prepreke u pristupnim procesima Ukrajine i Moldavije. Rat se promatra kao novi geopolitički motiv za transformaciju politike proširenja u stvarni instrument očuvanja europske sigurnosti. U skladu s otežanom provedbom reformi u okviru ratnih okolnosti, pretpostavlja se kako će politika proširenja za Ukrajinu isprva značiti pomoć u završetku rata i poslijeratnoj obnovi, dok će za Moldaviju značiti mogućnost ubrzanja provedbe reformi i revitalizacije gospodarstva. Za ostvarenje tih ciljeva, potrebne su znatne promjene unutar EU-a, a koje se prije svega tiču ograničenja jednoglasnog odlučivanja država članica te povećanja zajedničkog proračuna.

Abstract (english)

The paper analyzes the impact of the war in Ukraine on the European Union enlargement policy and the obstacles in the accession processes of Ukraine and Moldova. The war is seen as a new geopolitical motive for transforming the enlargement policy into a real instrument for preserving European security. Given the challenging implementation of reforms amid war circumstances, it is assumed that the enlargement policy for Ukraine will initially mean assistance in ending the war and post-war reconstruction, while for Moldova it will provide an opportunity to accelerate the reforms implementation and to revitalize the economy. To achieve these goals, substantial changes within the EU are necessary, primarily regarding the limitation of unanimous decision-making by member states and increasing the common budget.
